Mrs. Cheryl Kordes

Mrs. Kordes has taught at St. Peter in Chains since 2005. As the seventh-grade homeroom teacher, she teaches seventh- and eighth-grade language arts and math. Mrs. Kordes graduated from the University of Cincinnati and previously taught at Our Lady of Lourdes, C.O. Harrison, St. Jude, and Three Rivers. She has been a member of Our Lady of Visitation Parish since 1993. 

Mrs. Kordes is the lead teacher and a mentor to beginning teachers. She co-chairs the Ohio Catholic School Accrediting Association (OCSAA) Self-Study and co-leads the Professional Learning Community. She also oversees the collection of can tabs to benefit The Ronald McDonald House. 

One of Mrs. Kordes’ responsibilities is to accompany the junior high students on the Washington, D.C., trip; she believes the fundraisers and service activities required to make this trip happen help to build strength and character in her students. “Our students are conscientious, creative, and enthusiastic about learning,” says Mrs. Kordes. “Parents and staff are encouraging and supportive. Best of all are the smiles that greet me daily as we embark on fulfilling God’s will for our lives.”
